Is the free plan really free?

Yes. No card to sign up, no trial countdown. We only ask for payment when your shop crosses the Starter limits.

Do you charge per barber?

Never. Vagaro and Booksy add fees every time you hire. We don't.

What about payment processing?

We pass card-network rates through at cost plus 0.5% — well under Vagaro's 2.75%.

Can I import from Vagaro / Booksy / Fresha?

Yes. Bring your client list and upcoming bookings via CSV. White-glove import on Pro and Scale.
